My First actual blog entry~

First I would like to direct you to these two pages of the manga "Junjou Romantica".

In the First page there I'd like you to look at the last three panels and for the second page, the first two panels.

These parts of this certain chapter struck me so hard that it made me wake up in the middle of the night.

My intention was to read the chapter before I go to sleep, I thought it wouldn't be long until I gave up anyway since my eyes were closing and I was already feeling sleep slowly claim me. Yet, the moment that I read those lines I found my eyes snapping open and by brain fully alert and awake.

I read the lines again and again, realization sinking in at each turn.

"These were similar, if not the exact, same lines that my Kunimitsu told me a few months back"

It's such a great coincidence that the exact same name our antagonist had back then was "Takahiro", I guess.

But when I realized all this I went back a few pages and found myself a bit more shocked (and a bit creeped out) when I read the story behind the character Misaki, the one the other (Usagi) was hugging:

Takahiro (Misaki's brother) was talking to Usagi about how their parents died. It appears that Misaki has been blaming himself for their parents death.(Their parents died in a car crash because of over-speeding, Misaki blamed himself because previous to that he had asked his parents to hurry home.)

And then this exchange happens:



It revealed that the character was giving a front to everyone else. A front that crumbled down when he is in front of Usagi , as revealed in the previous chapters.

We're just the same...

That was the first thing that came to mind the moment that I read that certain page. I, just like Misaki, had learned to put up a front when dealing to harsh realities and seldom does it happen that people see through it...that was until a special someone came.

And throughout every hardship we have been through he has been like Usagi, never letting go...fighting on for what we have.

The mere thought of it all is making me quite giddy....

Long story short, This manga: "Junjou Romantica" has made me feel grateful toward my beloved once again. It also reminded me how much I love him despite the fact that my brain wasn't supposed to be able to proses anything more than 'zzzzzz'.

Yes, love is that powerful. *chuckle* It strikes subtly yet its effect is overwhelming.

Well, I guess I'm due to go to sleep now since it's already 1:21 in the morning.

Good Night all~

*cuddles pillow*
